V Festival

The Stone Roses, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. The original dual-venue festival continues to draw in lots of big name exclusives to Weston and Hylands Parks and, thanks to a budget that appears to be bottomless, a truly staggering array of the most popular and glitzy names in rock and pop. It's a shame about the overcrowding, the extortionate price of everything and an atmosphere that feels more like a gaggle of stag and hen dos than an all-inclusive party in a field, but you can always take solace in the luxury 'V Style' campsite or comedy stage, both of which were only introduced last year.
